Hi Gloria & Group - Just like you, Gloria, PD entered my life at age 32 and I am now 53. Presently I am serving on a committee at HHS / NIH in Washington that is concerned with xenotransplantation (cross-species) therapy. You can read all about this experimental surgery, which I had in 1996, at URL: <A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/jimcfinn/index.html"> http://www.geocities.com/jimcfinn/index.html</A> Of course XT technology is expected to have a much wider influence on medical science. Predictions are for applications in human organ replacement such as hearts, kidneys, lungs, etc. But the scientists decided to try cell replacement for the treatment of PD as the starting point in this exciting research. I am very fortunate to be 1 of the first group of 12 anywhere on the planet selected to participate.
